From "The Storm Chaser" to "When the Stars Shine", to " Alone in the Lost City " co-written by Xin Zhilei and Huang Jingyu.
's interest in spy dramas has successfully reached its peak, and what he wants to watch most next is domestic spy dramas.
Judging from the list of upcoming films, there are quite a few spy dramas to be aired, but although the number is considerable and the overall configuration is considered, not all of them are worthy of the high expectations.
However, these four upcoming spy dramas are worth looking forward to and are expected to become popular.
might as well make a bold prediction. Among these four dramas, will there be an annual drama king with a spy war theme?
Fourth place, "Lone Boat", starring: Zhang Songwen, Zeng Shunxi
Zhang Songwen, who was promoted to the top of the uncle circle after "Hurious", has become a guarantee of popularity.
Many viewers want to see him play the villain again.
In this "Gu Zhou", Zhang Songwen plays the out-and-out villain - the great traitor Zhou Zhifei, and judging from the character setting, he is worse than Gao Qiqiang.
When Gao Qiqiang was a fish seller, he was bullied and had to embark on this road. Although he became a gangster, he still felt that it was not easy because he had slowly climbed up from the bottom.
But Zhou Zhifei was a traitor. He not only harmed his compatriots, but also acted as a dog-legger to the Japanese. There was obviously no possibility of clearing this role. The absolute negativity gives Zhang Songwen enough room to play, and it can also satisfy the audience's expectations to see him play a villain again.
This drama mainly tells the story of the battle between good and evil. Gu Yizhong, played by Zeng Shunxi, is a top student in the Department of Architecture who returned to China. He comes from a wealthy family but has ideals and actively participates in the anti-Japanese war.
In the process, he battled wits and courage with Zhou Zhifei. While removing his own suspicion, he also successfully punished Zhou Zhifei and other traitors.
"Lone Boat" is a work with the flavor of an orthodox spy drama without adding so many fancy settings. It is very friendly to viewers who like this kind of subject matter, but the disadvantage is that it lacks freshness.
But if you win steadily, it is very likely that "Guzhou" will successfully break out of the circle.
The third place, "Old Enemy: Mountains and Rivers Nameless", starring: Liao Fan, Zhu Zhu
Among the spy war dramas to be broadcast, the most special setting is this " Enemy: Mountains and Rivers" starring Liao Fan and Zhu Zhu Unnamed 》. Although
is also about spy war, it is a modern spy war drama, focusing on two opposing groups: national security and spies.
The same type of works have been launched in the Chinese drama market before. " rivals " starring Guo Jingfei and Tan Zhuo, and " Eye of the Storm " starring Yang Mi and Zhang Binbin, all have similar settings.
only depicts different subjects. The former mainly depicts spies, while the latter focuses on positive characters, national security personnel.
This "Old Enemy: Mountains and Rivers Nameless" mainly depicts a national security worker who has been tracking spies for decades, and his battle of wits and courage with spies who are good at disguise. During the
period, national security workers changed different identities, hiding themselves in the market, and constantly looking for traces of each other.
The actor Liao Fan who plays this role is recognized as the best actor, and his strength cannot be underestimated. The heroine Zhu Zhu is also a sexy goddess. It is really exciting to see what kind of sparks will be created when these two people are paired together.
In addition, there are also actors such as Li Jian who starred in "Hurry Up" and Zhang Zhijian of "In the Name of the People" to help out. There is no need to worry about the overall acting level.
But the reason why this drama ranks third is inseparable from director Qidao.
His acting skills have been tested in works such as " Jinling Thirteen Beauties " and " Hoh Xil ". However, " Infinite " he directed after becoming a director did not even reach the passing mark.
It is hard not to worry that this drama will repeat the mistakes of "Infernal Affairs". Therefore, whether it can become a hit or not cannot be determined until the series is aired.
But what is certain is that based on the plot setting and lineup alone, "Old Enemy: Mountains and Rivers Nameless" is still worth looking forward to.
Second place, "Guardians", starring: Han Dongjun, Zhang Yishan
It is not a model of old and new, and there is no actor to take the lead. This "Guardians" boldly puts the protagonists in the hands of young actors.
One is Zhang Yishan, who made his debut as a child star and became famous with "Yu Zui", and the other is Han Dongjun, who entered everyone's field of vision with "Wuxin Master". In the past two years, he has starred in " Changjin Lake ", "Water Gate Bridge" and other works. .
If you look at their past achievements, you will know why they dared to choose them to carry the show in "Guardians".
The characters played by Han Dongjun and Zhang Yishan in the play are moving and silent. One is our underground worker and the other is a minor actor. The two incompatible people come together to complete a task of destroying the Japanese army's cryptographic system.
The bitch actor played by Zhang Yishan was invited by a blind cryptologist to impersonate himself. He was involved in this accident inexplicably, but had to accompany our underground workers to continue the trick.
Han Dongjun portrays an underground worker who is meticulous, experienced, cautious and delicate.
The completely different characters fit the styles of the two actors, and the setting of this spy drama is also very fresh. It relies entirely on acting to survive, which is interesting and rare.
The first place, "Dark Night and Dawn", starring: Chen Zheyuan, Nie Yuan, Wang Zhiwen
The story has a special character, and the lineup that can be called the ceiling is this new drama of Wang Zhiwen-"Dark Night and Dawn".
tells the story of the first generation of public security soldiers in New China in Shanghai fighting against Chiang Kai-shek's agents who attempted to subvert New China.

Among them, Wang Zhiwen plays a highly intelligent villain. You can imagine how exciting the showdown between good and evil in this drama will be.
